HEAT-INSULATING WINDOW PANEL
A heat-insulating window panel includes: a light-transmissive member having light transmissivity; and a panel member including an outdoor substrate that supports the light-transmissive member from an outdoor side via a first elastic body, an indoor substrate that supports the light-transmissive member from an indoor side via a second elastic body without being in contact with the outdoor substrate, and a heat-insulating material disposed between the outdoor substrate and the indoor substrate, and even when a force is applied to one of the outdoor substrate and the indoor substrate in a direction away from the other to move the one in a separating direction, the outdoor substrate and the indoor substrate have a hooking margin for hooking the one on the other.
Metallic fenestration systems with improved thermal performance and methods of manufacturing same
Thermally broken fenestration systems are provided that improve performance characteristics or combinations thereof, including strength and thermal conductivity. Embodiments disclosed include one or more fenestration frame assemblies, each having an interior frame member and an exterior frame member. The interior frame members and exterior frame members are coupled together via a plurality of bridges distributed along the length of the respective fenestration frame assembly. The bridges provide structural rigidity, while providing a plurality of air gaps between interior frame member and the exterior frame member to provide a thermal break.

Insulating strip for door, window or façade elements, composite profile for door, window or façade elements, and method for finishing manufacturing of a roll-in head of an insulating strip for door, window or façade elements
An insulating strip (3) connects profiles (2) of a composite profile (1) for doors, windows or faade elements. At least one of the profiles has a roll-in groove (6) and is composed of a first metal material. The insulating strip (3) includes a strip body (4) composed of an insulating material and extending in a longitudinal direction (z). A roll-in head (5) is formed at a longitudinal edge of the strip body (4). The roll-in head (5) has a cross-sectional shape in a plane (x-y) perpendicular to the longitudinal direction (z) suitable for insertion into the roll-in groove (6). A metal sheet (13) having surface variations (17; 18) covers at least a portion of a surface (10, 11, 12) of the roll-in head (5). At least a portion of the sheet (13) is composed of a second metal material having a tensile strength of 300 N/mm.sup.2 or more.

COMPOSITE PROFILE, AND METHOD FOR PRODUCING THE COMPOSITE PROFILE
A composite profile for windows, fixed glazing, faades, doors or glass roofs. A metal profile is produced by shaping, in particular by roll-forming, from a sheet metal material and that has a profile cross section that forms a groove and a web, the web being formed by profile portions that are on top of one another at least in portions and transition into profile portions that define the groove. The composite profile further comprises an integral or multi-part insulating profile received in the groove of the metal profile in portions and is non-positively and/or positively connected to the metal profile. The insulating profile and/or a further profile received in the groove of the metal profile engages/engage in pockets of the metal profile that are open towards the groove and are arranged on either side of the web.
